This API Reference describes the elements and attributes for each call in the eBay Merchant Data API.

Note: SOAP is not a supported format for the information within Merchant Data files. The Merchant Data APIs in the following table can be used as the 'payload' information within Merchant Data files that are uploaded or downloaded. These are not calls that can be invoked on their own, like the Trading APIs in the 'Related Calls' table.

Additional resources are available for this eBay Web Service. Please see the eBay Developer Documentation Center.
